Section 1: Introduction- Quick Start
5 INSTALL THE SOFTWARE
1. Place the QSC Signal Manager CD in your computer’s CD drive (typically the D:\ drive). The installation program should run
automatically after several seconds; if it does not,
then
proceed with step 2:
2. Run D:\Setup.exe (replace D: with the drive letter designator appropriate for your system) and follow the instructions displayed.
3. When the installation is complete, you will be presented with a screen that prompts you to view the “Readme” file. Please take
time to read this- it contains important up-to-date information on the software.
4. After installation, you will have an icon on your computer’s “desk top” labeled
Signal Manager
. Use this icon to start the
application (double-click on the
Signal Manager
icon, this will start the program).
5. Using the Menu Bar (see below) at the top of the window, choose the “
Help
” item and read the software help section. The help
system includes the contents of this hardware manual for “paperless” reference.
6. IMPORTANT! The DSP-3 is shipped with all of its presets configured to pass full-range audio signals through both channels.
THIS MAY NOT BE APPROPRIATE FOR YOUR SETUP! Be sure to configure any necessary crossovers , filters, etc. prior
to applying audio signals to the inputs. Damage to equipment may result if these recommendations are not followed.
